Workshop description

The aim of the workshop is to present the RDM Expert tour guide, which was prepared by CESSDA ERIC Service providers. CESSDA data management experts will train participants in how to use the developed materials in the delivery of training to their researchers. The training event is designed interactively and includes hands-on exercises.

The primary target audience for participation in this event is employees of CESSDA Service Providers and CESSDA partnering organisations, as well as employees of affiliated organisations and research institutions, tasked with providing training on research data management to the social science research community, or planning to deliver such a training in the future.
